Article Abstract
The term "officinal" derives from the Latin and includes all medicinal, aromatic and perfume plant species, which have long been a subject of interest for multiple purposes: health, food, pharmacological, cosmetic and so on. In this work, a study on six different species of medicinal plants, particularly characterized by digestive, choleretic and diuretic properties, was carried out: rosemary (), sage (), laurel (), gentian (), dandelion () and rhubarb (). The roots and aerial parts of plants were separately extracted with two different techniques-maceration and rapid solid-liquid dynamic extraction (RSLDE)-and the quali/quantitative analysis of active ingredients have been determined by applying dry residue, Folin-Ciocalteu and DPPH assays. Data obtained have provided useful answers regarding the efficiency of the extraction carried out on a mixture or on single plants, allowing us to evaluate the best choice according to the cases and the final uses.

Maintenance of organismal function requires tightly regulated biomolecular communication. However, with aging, communication deteriorates, thereby disrupting effective information flow. Using information theory applied to skeletal muscle single cell RNA-seq data from young, middle-aged, and aged animals, we quantified the loss of communication efficiency over time.

Efficient DNA delivery is essential for genetic manipulation of mycobacteria and for dissecting their physiology, pathogenesis, and drug resistance. Although electroporation enables transformation efficiencies exceeding 10⁵ CFU per µg DNA in and , it remains highly inefficient in many nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), including . Here, we discovered that NTM such as exhibit exceptional tolerance to ultra-high electric field strengths and that hypertonic preconditioning partially protects cells from electroporation-induced damage.

The synthesis of biomass-derived nanocarbons via ball milling has emerged as an innovative, sustainable, and cost-effective strategy in the field of nanotechnology. This review comprehensively explores the principles, mechanisms, and process parameters that influence the production of high-quality nanocarbons from biomass using ball milling. This process efficiently transforms biomass residues into nanoscale carbon, including graphene, carbon nanotubes, and nanofibers, with tunable physicochemical properties tailored for advanced applications.

In this study, a one-pot hydrothermal synthesis method was used to synthesize a novel gold-yttrium trimesic acid metal-organic framework (Au-Y-TMA MOF), demonstrating significant improvements over conventional single-metal MOFs, that is, yttrium trimesic acid (Y-TMA), in both supercapacitor applications and electrochemical antibiotic detection. The X-ray diffraction patterns of Au-Y-TMA confirmed the presence and impact of Au in the Y-TMA matrix, while field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images revealed a heterogeneous combination of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Y-TMA, suggesting a nonuniform distribution and possible interaction. The developed half-cell supercapacitor exhibited a remarkable capacitance value of 1836 F/g at a current density of 5 A/g by galvanostatic charging-discharging (GCD) measurement.

The vitamin B complex, a group of water-soluble vitamins, is essential for various metabolic and cellular processes and critical for achieving optimal surgical outcomes in plastic and cosmetic procedures. This review examines the mechanistic contributions of this complex at the cellular level, including any roles in mitochondrial bioenergetics, redox balance, gene regulation, and cellular repair mechanisms. Niacinamide, as a precursor to NAD⁺, enhances mitochondrial efficiency and facilitates energy production, supporting tissue regeneration.
